The name of the person who invented Badminton isn't known. However, it is known that it was invented in India, and originally called 'Poona.' British soldiers stationed in India during the Raj learned to play the game, and brought the rules and equipment back to England when they returned. The Duke of Beaufort is credited with introducing the name 'Badminton' in 1873. His estate was known as Badminton, and people who played the game there, started calling it 'that Badminton game.'
